Paris, Palais de l’Élysée “… After this battle, we, France, once again proclaim to the world that we have the power to completely decimate any enemy that dares to threaten our sovereignty and will meet any attack with full force!…” Every newspaper and tabloid in Paris sent representatives to [Tu]’s speech, which was interrupted multiple […]

Paris, Palais des Tuileries After Dawn had sent that damned letter, she felt uneasy day in and day out. Her pigeon had not returned and this meant that what she did had been found out. Though the guards assigned to her had increased, no one was sent to take her away yet.

Unlike in Aude, this was not a battle. It was a massacre. The scent of gunpowder mixed with the thick smell of blood made one want to puke. Bodies were strewn everywhere on the charred earth, many of which were unrecognisable. The battlefield of Aude had swords stuck in the ground and broken rifles, which […]

“Austro-Hungary huh.” Tu sighed as he looked at the terrifyingly large problem on the map. — The Austro-Hungarian Empire to the south was ruled jointly by Francis and Karl. They had given him a big headache in the closed beta but he never thought they would be in the exact same positions as they were […]

The battle of Aude which would decide the fate of the newly resurgent France ended in a great victory for Tu’s Paris forces. 4,500 brilliant warriors were sacrificed in exchange for 23,000 casualties in the Austrian side (most of the damage was inflicted when the Austro-Hungarian side retreated), and 1 captive.
